Structural field relations, petrologic and geochemical studies, and radiometric age aualysis of metamorphic rocks at the base of the Brooks Range ophiolite provide a record of the time, tectonic setting, and initial conditions of ophiolite emplacement during the Middle Jurassic western Brookian orogeny. The metamorphic sole of the Misheguk, Siniktanneyak, and Avan Hills ophiolite bodies is tran...

To study the ontogeny of the vasotocin (VT) system and its contribution to anuran metamorphosis, VT mRNA levels were determined by Northern blot analysis in metamorphosing bullfrog tadpoles. Effects of osmotic stimulation on VT mRNA levels were also analyzed in order to follow the development of osmotic responsiveness of VT neurons. The intensity of hybridization signals for VT mRNA gradually i...

This paper considers how to enumerate the basic set of all the non-isomorphic configurations of a planar metamorphic robotic system. Metamorphic robotic systems are being widely studied because their shape changing abilities make them potentially useful for a larger set of tasks that conventional robotic systems are unable to develop, for example reconnaissance, exploration, satellite recovery,...

Software testing is one of phases in software engineering process that has a very important role to determine the quality of software under test. In software testing, after generating and selecting test cases, and executing them, the outputs need to be checked against a test oracle to determine whether any failures detected or not. Oracle problem is one of the biggest problems in Software testi...

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: Eclogite HP granulite Paired metamorphic belts UHPM UHTM The modern plate tectonics regime is characterized by a duality of thermal environments, one representing the subduction zone and the other representing the arc–backarc or orogenic hinterland. This duality is the hallmark of one-sided (asymmetric) subduction, and the characteristic imprint of one-sided subd...

In situ LA-MC-ICP-MS U-Pb zircon geochronology combined with cathodoluminescence imaging were carried out to determine protolith and metamorphic ages of orthogneisses from the Western Tatra Mountains (Central Western Carpathians). The metamorphic complex is subdivided into two units (the Lower Unit and the Upper Unit). Orthogneisses of the Lower Unit are mostly banded, fine- to medium-grained r...
